At the April 2013 JSC Spring Safety Fair, CS3 sponsored the Firearms Safety Simulator Booth. Visitors of the Booth were given instruction on general firearm safety rules including proper grip, aiming techniques and handling a weapon safely. They were then able to practice their firearm safety knowledge on a scenario-based firearm simulator. This simulator places participants in the type of situations that law enforcement officer’s encounter while testing their reaction time and ability to recall safety measures in a stressful situation.
